who invented the periodic table? (D.M)

Dimitri Mendeleev

A measure of reproductive success is called ____

Fitness

Charles Darwin published what book?

On The Origin Of Species

On The Origin Of Species states Darwins ideas of ____ _____

Natural Selection

A materials ability to be pliable and flexible, like being able to be bent into wires

Ductility

The quality of something that can be shaped into something else without breaking

Malleability

A number to the bottom right of a chemical symbol indicating how many atoms of that molecule are present, ie: H₂O

Subscript

A number to the top right of a chemical symbol indicating the charge of an ion

Superscript

The _____ indicates that matter can be created nor destroyed

Law of Conversation mass

A homogenous mixture consists of only ___ phase

one

A heterozygous mixture consists of ____ or ___ phases

two, more

The idea that parts of the body that are used extensively become larger and stronger, while those that are not deteriorate

Use and disuse

a philosophical view of nature that ranks living things in hierarchical order based on their degree of perfection

Scala Nurtrae

In _____ the _____ phenotype lies somewhere between two homozygous phenotypes. Two alleles produce an intermediate phenotype, rather than one fully determining the phenotypr

incomplete dominance, heterozygous

In ____ both traits in _____ are expressed. Both alleles are expressed equally in ____ and ____ individuals will express both traits at the same time

codominance, heterozygotes

share a common ancestor but serve a different function

Homologous structures

serve similar functions but not a common ancestor

Analogous Structures

they are traits that our ancestors needed but no longer serve a purpose

Vestigal structures

a nonrandom natural process that results in the survival and reproductive success of individuals or groups best adjusted to their environment and that leads to the perpetuation of genetic qualities best suits to the enviorment (random)

natural selection

a change in the genes of a population by random chance making a particular allele more or less common in the population (non random)

Genetic Drift

the random transfer to genetic variation from one population to another increasing genetic diversity and affecting allele frequency (random)

gene flow

a change in gene frequency following a dramatic reduction of a populations size. This usually results in a population with reduced genetic diversity

genetic bottleneck

when a few individuals colonize a brand new habitat. Results in reduced genetic diversity

Founder effect

Aristotle

viewed species as fixed and unchanging. Life could be arranged on a ladder from simple to complex called scala natruae

Carolus Linneaeus

created the binomial nomenclature and worked to group and classify lifes diversity for the “greater glory” of God

Charles Lyell

Profound change can take place through the cumulative effect of slow by continues processes. Earths geologic features formed by gradual mechanisms.

Jean Baptiste de Lamarck

while not the only natrualist to suggest that life evolves as environments chnage, he was the only one who proposed a mechanism for how life changes over time

Captain Robert Fitzroy

sailed charles darwin to the galapagoz islands on the hms beagle in 1835
